It is SO tall, 26”, but the leaves are drooping and because of its height it’s so delicate and falls over easily. I always have to lean it against something. Everyone’s said don’t repot unless the roots are coming out. Do I repot? It really feels like it’s dying. And because of how tall and flimsy it is, should I cut it up? I’ll have to cut off leaves in order to bury it deep it enough it won’t fall over. ![3개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/yp4w1VlSpDZJoYT3DMqm_kvwBP5MprCGUo0mCVTOcug/I4_HPjR2S22m0txOkI8SwA.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/yp4w1VlSpDZJoYT3DMqm_kvwBP5MprCGUo0mCVTOcug/qdyjTtxTSDeUslqe6LB9EQ.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 3번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/yp4w1VlSpDZJoYT3DMqm_kvwBP5MprCGUo0mCVTOcug/B8Ss_lcsRBSYVpxqlQmZew.webp?size=large) ## 10개의 댓글 ### Sunny님이 2025-02-15에 댓글을 남겼어요. Check the roots. It may need a repot its fresh soil and a moss pole to support. #### Jessie Stratton Zhou님이 2025-02-15에 답변했습니다. Thank you! This is such a tiny pot, I think 2”. Do you recommend I go up just one size? Any recommendations on a fairly skinny moss pole? #### Bebe🌵🤍님이 2025-02-15에 답변했습니다. Honestly, it looks like it needs a repot so if that’s the case, the typical sized moss polls would work fine! #### Sunny님이 2025-02-16에 답변했습니다. Start with a 4” pot. That should give you it enough growing room without letting excess wet soil sit on the roots. You may have to repot in spring or early summer depending on the rate of root growth. #### Jessie Stratton Zhou님이 2025-02-17에 답변했습니다. Thank you! ### KJM님이 2025-02-15에 댓글을 남겼어요. Yes repotting would be advised. 2 in is quite tiny for such a tall plant. Of course the picture might be distorting the actual size. When you choose a new pot I would go with something breathable. Pink princess does not like wet feet. Also, raise the soil level so that air can easily evaporate moisture from the top. Soil should come a half inch or so from the top of the pot. Use a good quality draining soil perhaps one especially for aroids. #### Jessie Stratton Zhou님이 2025-02-15에 답변했습니다. Thank you! I have suspected I needed to repot for quite some time now, but a lot of people recommended against it because I never saw roots coming out. But it’s at the point where it can’t even stand up. Do you think 4” is okay? I just want to make sure it has base support and won’t fall over because it’s almost 3’ tall. #### Sunny님이 2025-02-18에 답변했습니다. I recommended the 4” pot to allow for a slim moss pole or a trellis to fit. Use the ceramic pot as an outer pot to weigh it down. ### KJM님이 2025-02-15에 댓글을 남겼어요. You should be able to find a moss Pole at a good garden center. Or you might consider a small trellis. Whatever you choose think a little down the road and buy one that is a little taller than your plant. I will say it is very satisfying to see a plant rooting into a sturdy Moss Pole.. ### KJM님이 2025-02-15에 댓글을 남겼어요. You can use ferning pins, zip ties, twine or other things to fasten your plant to the Moss Pole but whatever you use make sure it's not too tight around the stem. --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
